I had Steve with ECHS install a very intricate parlor lamp. He enthusiastically took on the task, only to realize halfway into the project the lamp needed to be rewired. Steve tirelessly stayed with the project to see it through. It is now the centerpiece of my home. He is very patient and honest. I trust him in my home and appreciate his skills.
ECHS did a great job replacing my kitchen sink faucet. Steve was professional and very nice to work with. I was impressed with his work so I hired him back to help me with some trim work in my tv room. The trim was originally installed incorrectly, but Steve was able make the necessary changes to make it right.

ECHS has done several projects for us over the past few years. Most recently they reinforced/rebuilt our deck structure, which was in dire need of repair. They also built gates for our dog run. We also had them install a stone hearth behind our free-standing stove and he built a craftsman style mantle on top. The owner of ECHS is very meticulous. We will certainly use ECHS for future projects!

When I moved to Cle Elum, I had ECHS hang all of my artwork, change almost all of my light fixtures, install new ceiling fans, and put up new window coverings. They also put in a new kitchen faucet and replaced all the under-sink plumbing. I also had them put in a new sprinkler controller and fix several of my irrigation lines and sprinklers for my lawn and landscaping. I am very particular and ECHS never fails to do the job to my satisfaction!
